Pripojte sa k Johnovi Hardymu na prechádzke po Zelenej škole, jeho nekonvenčnej škole na Bali, ktorá učí deti budovať, záhradkárčiť, tvoriť (a dostať sa na vysokú školu). Centrum školského areálu je špirálovité Srdce školy, ktoré je pravdepodobne najväčšia voľne stojaca budova postavená z bambusu na svete.

I grew up
0
0
2000
Vyrastal som
00:17
in a very small village in Canada,
1
2000
3000
v malej dedinke v Kanade
00:20
and I'm an undiagnosed
2
5000
3000
a som nediagnostikovaný
00:23
dyslexic.
3
8000
2000
dyslektik.
00:25
I had a really hard time in school.
4
10000
3000
So školou som mal fakt veľké problémy.
00:28
In fact, my mother told me eventually
5
13000
2000
Moja mama mi napokon aj povedala,
00:30
that I was the little kid in the village
6
15000
2000
že som bol malé dedinské dieťa,
00:32
who cried all the way to school.
7
17000
3000
ktoré plakalo celou cestou do školy.
00:37
I ran away.
8
22000
2000
Utiekol som.
00:39
I left when I was 25 years old to go to Bali,
9
24000
3000
Odišiel som, keď som mal 25 rokov, na Bali.
00:44
and there I met my incredible wife, Cynthia,
10
29000
3000
Tu som stretol moju fantastickú manželku Cynthiu
00:47
and together, over 20 years,
11
32000
3000
a spolu sme viac ako 20 rokov
00:50
we built an amazing jewelry business.
12
35000
3000
budovali vynikajúci klenotnícky biznis.
00:53
It was a fairy tale, and then we retired.
13
38000
3000
Všetko bolo ako z rozprávky a potom sme odišli do dôchodku.
00:56
Then she took me to see a film
14
41000
2000
Raz mi ukázala jeden film,
00:58
that I really didn't want to see.
15
43000
3000
kotrý som ani veľmi nechcel vidieť.
01:01
It ruined my life --
16
46000
3000
Zničilo to môj život --
01:04
(Laughter)
17
49000
2000
(smiech)
01:06
"The Inconvenient Truth" and Mr. Gore.
18
51000
3000
"Nepríjemná pravda" a pán Gore.
01:09
I have four kids,
19
54000
3000
Mám štyri deti
01:12
and even if part of what he says is true,
20
57000
3000
a ak len časť z toho, čo hovorí je pravda,
01:15
they're not going to have the life that I had.
21
60000
3000
tak potom nebudú mať taký život, aký som mal ja.
01:19
And I decided at that moment
22
64000
3000
Od toho momentu som sa rozhodol,
01:22
that I would spend the rest of my life
23
67000
3000
že zvyšok svojho života budem robiť
01:25
doing whatever I could
24
70000
3000
čokoľvek budem môcť,
01:28
to improve their possibilities.
25
73000
3000
aby som zlepšil ich možnosti.
01:32
So here's the world,
26
77000
2000
Tak, tu máme svet,
01:34
and here we are in Bali.
27
79000
3000
tu sme na Bali.
01:37
It's a tiny, little island --
28
82000
2000
Je to maličký ostrovček --
01:39
60 miles by 90 miles.
29
84000
2000
Približne 100 krát 150 kilometrov.
01:41
It has an intact Hindu culture.
30
86000
3000
Má neporušenú hindskú kultúru.
01:44
Cynthia and I were there.
31
89000
2000
Cynthia a ja sme boli tu.
01:46
We had had a wonderful life there,
32
91000
3000
Prežili sme tu prekrásny život
01:49
and we decided to do something unusual.
33
94000
3000
a rozhodli sme sa urobiť niečo nezvyčajné.
01:52
We decided to give back
34
97000
3000
Rozhodli sme sa vrátiť to, čo sme dostali
01:55
locally.
35
100000
2000
lokálne.
01:57
And here it is: it's called the Green School.
36
102000
3000
A tu to je; volá sa to Zelená škola.
02:00
I know it doesn't look like a school,
37
105000
2000
Viem, že to nevyzerá ako škola,
02:02
but it is something we decided to do,
38
107000
3000
ale je to niečo, čo sme sa rozhodli urobiť
02:05
and it is extremely,
39
110000
2000
a je to nesmierne,
02:07
extremely green.
40
112000
3000
nesmierne zelené.
02:10
The classrooms have no walls.
41
115000
3000
Triedy nemajú steny.
02:13
The teacher is writing on a bamboo blackboard.
42
118000
3000
Učiteľ píše na tabuľu z bambusu.
02:16
The desks are not square.
43
121000
3000
Lavice nie sú hranaté.
02:19
At Green School, the children are smiling --
44
124000
3000
V Zelenej škole sa deti usmievajú --
02:22
an unusual thing for school, especially for me.
45
127000
3000
netypická vec pre školu, zvlášť pre mňa.
02:25
And we practice holism.
46
130000
3000
Praktizujeme holizmus.
02:28
And for me it's just the idea
47
133000
2000
Pre mňa je to práve myšlienka,
02:30
that, if this little girl
48
135000
2000
že keď toto dievčatko
02:32
graduates as a whole person,
49
137000
2000
absolvuje ako osoba ako celok,
02:34
chances are
50
139000
2000
tak existuje šanca,
02:36
she'll demand a whole world --
51
141000
2000
že si bude nárokovať svet ako celok --
02:38
a whole world --
52
143000
2000
svet ako celok --
02:40
to live on.
53
145000
2000
pre svoj život.
02:42
Our children spend 181 days
54
147000
3000
Naše deti trávia 181 dní
02:45
going to school in a box.
55
150000
3000
v škole ako v krabici.
02:48
The people that built my school
56
153000
2000
Ľudia, ktorí postavili moju školu,
02:50
also built the prison and the insane asylum
57
155000
3000
takisto postavili väznicu a ústav pre duševne chorých
02:53
out of the same materials.
58
158000
3000
z rovnakých materiálov.
02:58
So if this gentleman
59
163000
2000
Ak by tento pán
03:00
had had a holistic education,
60
165000
2000
mal holistické vzdelanie,
03:02
would he be sitting there?
61
167000
2000
sedel by tu?
03:04
Would he have had more possibilities in his life?
62
169000
3000
Mal by viac možností vo svojom živote?
03:09
The classrooms have natural light.
63
174000
2000
Triedy majú prirodzené svetlo.
03:11
They're beautiful. They're bamboo.
64
176000
3000
Sú nádherné. Sú z bambusu.
03:14
The breeze passes through them.
65
179000
2000
Prechádza cez ne vánok.
03:16
And when the natural breeze isn't enough,
66
181000
3000
A keď prirodzený vánok nepostačuje,
03:19
the kids deploy bubbles,
67
184000
2000
deti rozvinú bubliny,
03:21
but not the kind of bubbles you know.
68
186000
2000
ale nie také bubliny, ako poznáte.
03:23
These bubbles are made from natural cotton
69
188000
2000
Tieto bubliny sú vyrobené z prírodnej bavlny
03:25
and rubber from the rubber tree.
70
190000
3000
a guma je z gumovníka.
03:28
So we basically turned the box
71
193000
2000
V podstate sme zmenili krabicu
03:30
into a bubble.
72
195000
2000
na bublinu.
03:32
And these kids know
73
197000
2000
Tieto deti vedia,
03:34
that painless climate control
74
199000
3000
že bezbolestné ovládanie klímy
03:37
may not be
75
202000
2000
možno nebude
03:39
part of their future.
76
204000
2000
súčasťou ich budúcnosti.
03:42
We pay the bill at the end of the month,
77
207000
2000
My platíme účty na konci každého mesiaca,
03:44
but the people that are really going to pay the bill
78
209000
2000
ale ľudia, ktorí budú v skutočnosti platit náš účet
03:46
are our grandchildren.
79
211000
2000
sú naše vnúčatá.
03:49
We have to teach the kids
80
214000
2000
Musíme učiť deti,
03:51
that the world is not indestructible.
81
216000
3000
že svet nie je nezničiteľný.
03:56
These kids did a little graffiti on their desks,
82
221000
3000
Tieto deti popísali svoje lavice
03:59
and then they signed up for two extra courses.
83
224000
3000
a potom sa zapísali do ďalších dvoch prídavných kurzov.
04:02
The first one was called sanding
84
227000
3000
Prvý sa nazýva šmirgľovanie
04:05
and the second one was called re-waxing.
85
230000
3000
a druhý voskovanie.
04:08
But since that happened,
86
233000
3000
Ale odkedy sa to stalo,
04:11
they own those desks.
87
236000
3000
sú to už ich lavice.
04:14
They know they can control their world.
88
239000
3000
Vedia, že môžu ovládať svoj svet.
04:18
We're on the grid. We're not proud of it.
89
243000
3000
Sme napojení na sieť a nie sme na to hrdí.
04:21
But an amazing alternative energy company in Paris
90
246000
3000
Ale jedna úžasná parížska firma zaoberajúca sa alternatívnou energiou
04:24
is taking us off the grid with solar.
91
249000
3000
nás ide napojiť na solárnu energiu.
04:27
And this thing
92
252000
2000
A táto vec
04:29
is the second vortex to be built in the world,
93
254000
3000
je druhý vír na svete, ktorý má byť postavený
04:32
in a two-and-a-half meter drop on a river.
94
257000
3000
v dva a pol metrovom prepade na rieke.
04:35
When the turbine drops in,
95
260000
2000
Keď sa tam dá turbína,
04:37
it will produce 8,000 watts of electricity,
96
262000
2000
tak bude produkovať 8000 wattov elektriny
04:39
day and night.
97
264000
2000
každý deň i noc.
04:41
And you know what these are.
98
266000
2000
A určite viete na čo slúži toto.
04:43
There's nowhere to flush.
99
268000
2000
Tieto sa, však, nesplachujú.
04:45
And as long as we're taking our waste
100
270000
2000
Pokiaľ berieme náš odpad
04:47
and mixing it with a huge amount of water --
101
272000
2000
a zmiešavame ho s obrovským množstvom vody --
04:49
you're all really smart, just do the math.
102
274000
3000
všetci ste veľmi chytrí, ale len si to prepočítajte.
04:52
How many people times how much water.
103
277000
2000
Koľko ľudí krát koľko vody.
04:54
There isn't enough water.
104
279000
2000
Nemáme jednoducho dostatok vody.
04:56
These are compost toilets,
105
281000
2000
Toto sú kompostové toalety.
04:58
and nobody at the school wanted to know about them,
106
283000
3000
A nikto v škole o nich nechcel ani vedieť -
05:01
especially the principal.
107
286000
2000
- hlavne riaditeľ.
05:04
And they work. People use them. People are okay.
108
289000
3000
A fungujú; ľudia ich používajú a nemajú s tým problém.
05:07
It's something you should think about doing.
109
292000
3000
Je to niečo, o čom by ste mali premýšľať.
05:11
Not many things didn't work.
110
296000
3000
Málo vecí nefungovalo.
05:14
The beautiful canvas and rubber skylights
111
299000
3000
Nádherné plátno a gumený svetlík
05:17
got eaten by the sun in six months.
112
302000
2000
boli zničené slnkom v priebehu šiestich mesiacov.
05:19
We had to replace them with recyclable plastic.
113
304000
3000
Museli sme ich nahradiť recyklovateľným plastom.
05:23
The teachers dragged giant PVC whiteboards
114
308000
3000
Učitelia dotiahli do tried
05:26
into the classrooms.
115
311000
2000
obrovské PVC tabule,
05:28
So we had some good ideas:
116
313000
2000
tak sme dostali nejaké dobré nápady.
05:30
we took old automobile windshields, put paper behind them
117
315000
3000
Zobrali sme staré autosklá, dali za ne papier
05:33
and created the first alternative
118
318000
2000
a vytvorili prvú alternatívu
05:35
to the whiteboard.
119
320000
2000
k PVC tabuli.
05:39
Green School sits in south-central Bali,
120
324000
3000
Zelená škola sídli na juhu strednej časti Bali
05:42
and it's on 20 acres
121
327000
2000
na približne 8 hektároch
05:44
of rolling garden.
122
329000
2000
vlniacich sa záhrad.
05:46
There's an amazing river traveling through it,
123
331000
3000
Je tu úžasná rieka cestujúca pomedzi ne
05:49
and you can see there
124
334000
2000
a tu môžete vidieť
05:51
how we manage to get across the river.
125
336000
3000
ako sa nám podarilo cez ňu dostať.
05:54
I met a father the other day; he looked a little crazed.
126
339000
3000
Raz som stretol jedného otca, ktorý vyzeral trošku pobláznene.
05:57
I said, "Welcome to Green School."
127
342000
2000
Povedal som: "Vitajte v Zelenej škole."
05:59
He said, "I've been on an airplane for 24 hours."
128
344000
3000
On odpovedal: "Cestoval som v lietadle 24 hodín."
06:03
I asked him, "Why?"
129
348000
3000
Spýtal som sa ho: "Prečo?"
06:06
He said, "I had a dream once about a green school,
130
351000
3000
Povedal: "Raz som mal sen o zelenej škole
06:09
and I saw a picture of this green school,
131
354000
2000
a potom som videl obrázok tejto zelenej školy,
06:11
I got on an airplane.
132
356000
2000
tak som nasadol na lietadlo.
06:13
In August I'm bringing my sons."
133
358000
3000
V auguste sem dovediem mojich synov."
06:16
This was a great thing.
134
361000
2000
Toto bola úžasná vec.
06:18
But more than that,
135
363000
2000
Okrem toho,
06:20
people are building green houses around Green School,
136
365000
3000
ľudia si stavajú svoje zelené domy okolo Zelenej školy,
06:23
so their kids can walk to school on the paths.
137
368000
3000
aby mohli ich deti ísť do školy peši.
06:27
And people are bringing their green industries,
138
372000
2000
Ľudia sem prinášajú svoje zelené pracovné odvetvia
06:29
hopefully their green restaurants,
139
374000
2000
a snáď aj svoje zelené reštaurácie
06:31
to the Green School.
140
376000
2000
k Zelenej škole.
06:33
It's becoming a community.
141
378000
2000
Začína to byť komunita.
06:35
It's becoming a green model.
142
380000
3000
Začína to byť zelený model.
06:38
We had to look at everything.
143
383000
2000
Museli sme sa pozerať na všetko.
06:40
No petrochemicals in the pavement.
144
385000
2000
Žiadne ropné látky vo vozovke.
06:42
No pavement.
145
387000
2000
Žiadna vozovka.
06:44
These are volcanic stones laid by hand.
146
389000
2000
Toto sú sopečné kamene ukladané ručne.
06:46
There are no sidewalks.
147
391000
2000
Nie sú tu žiadne chodníky.
06:48
The sidewalks are gravel. They flood when it rains,
148
393000
3000
Chodníky sú štrkové, síce sa zaplavujú, keď prší,
06:51
but they're green.
149
396000
2000
ale sú zelené.
06:53
This is the school buffalo.
150
398000
2000
Toto je školský byvol.
06:57
He's planning to eat that fence for dinner.
151
402000
3000
Má v pláne zjesť ten plot na večeru.
07:00
All the fences at Green School are green.
152
405000
2000
Všetky ploty v Zelenej škole sú zelené.
07:02
And when the kindergarten kids
153
407000
2000
A keď deti zo škôlky
07:04
recently moved their gate,
154
409000
2000
nedávno posunuli svoju bránu,
07:06
they found out the fence was made out of tapioca.
155
411000
3000
zistili, že ich plot bol tvorený maniokom.
07:09
They took the tapioca roots up to the kitchen,
156
414000
3000
Zobrali korene manioky do kuchyne,
07:12
sliced them thinly and made delicious chips.
157
417000
3000
natenko ich nakrájali a urobili vynikajúce čipsy.
07:15
Landscaping.
158
420000
3000
Tvorba krajiny.
07:18
We manage to keep the garden that was there
159
423000
2000
Podarilo sa nám zachovať záhradu, ktorá sa
07:20
running right up to the edge of each of the classrooms.
160
425000
3000
vliekla až ku kraju každej triedy.
07:23
We dropped them gently in.
161
428000
2000
Jemne sme ich zasadili do krajiny.
07:25
We made space for these guys
162
430000
3000
Urobili sme miesto pre týchto chlapíkov,
07:28
who are Bali's last black pigs.
163
433000
3000
ktorí sú posledné čierne ošípané na Bali.
07:32
And the school cow
164
437000
2000
A školská krava
07:34
is trying to figure out
165
439000
2000
sa snaží vyšpekulovať
07:36
how to replace the lawnmower
166
441000
2000
ako nahradiť kosačku na trávu
07:38
on the playing field.
167
443000
2000
na ihrisku.
07:40
These young ladies
168
445000
2000
Tieto mladé slečny
07:42
are living in a rice culture,
169
447000
2000
žijú v ryžovej kultúre,
07:44
but they know something that few people know in a rice culture.
170
449000
3000
ale vedia niečo, čo vie len veľmi málo ľudí v ryžovej kultúre.
07:47
They know how to plant organic rice,
171
452000
2000
Ony vedia ako zasadiť BIO ryžu,
07:49
they know how to look after it,
172
454000
2000
vedia ako sa o ňu starať,
07:51
they know how to harvest and they know how to cook it.
173
456000
3000
vedia ako ju zbierať a vedia ako ju uvariť.
07:54
They're part of the rice cycle
174
459000
2000
Sú súčasťou ryžového kolobehu.
07:56
and these skills will be valuable
175
461000
2000
Tieto skúsenosti budú pre nich
07:58
for them in their future.
176
463000
2000
v budúcnosti užitočné.
08:00
This young man is picking organic vegetables.
177
465000
3000
Tento mladý muž zbiera BIO zeleninu.
08:04
We feed 400 people lunch every day
178
469000
3000
Živíme na obed 400 ľudí každý deň.
08:07
and it's not a normal lunch. There's no gas.
179
472000
3000
A nie je to bežný obed; nemáme plyn.
08:10
Local Balinese women
180
475000
2000
Miestne balijské ženy
08:12
cook the food on sawdust burners
181
477000
3000
varia jedlo na spalovači pilín
08:15
using secrets that only their grandmothers know.
182
480000
3000
a používajú tajomstvá, ktoré vedeli len ich staré mamy.
08:19
The food is incredible.
183
484000
3000
Jedlo je fantastické.
08:23
Green School is a place of pioneers,
184
488000
2000
Zelená škola je miesto priekopníkov -
08:25
local and global.
185
490000
2000
- miestnych i svetových.
08:27
And it's a kind of microcosm
186
492000
2000
Je to akýsi mikrokozmos
08:29
of the globalized world.
187
494000
2000
globalizovaného sveta.
08:31
The kids are from 25 countries.
188
496000
2000
Deti sú z 25 krajín.
08:33
When I see them together,
189
498000
2000
Keď ich vidím spolu,
08:35
I know that they're working out
190
500000
3000
viem, že vymýšľajú
08:38
how to live in the future.
191
503000
3000
ako žiť v budúcnosti.
08:41
Green School is going into its third year
192
506000
2000
Zelená škola začína tretí rok
08:43
with 160 children.
193
508000
2000
so 160 deťmi.
08:45
It's a school where you do learn reading --
194
510000
2000
Je to škola, kde sa naučíte čítať --
08:47
one of my favorites --
195
512000
2000
moje najobľúbenejšie --
08:49
writing -- I was bad at it --
196
514000
2000
písať -- v tom som bol zlý --
08:51
arithmetic.
197
516000
2000
a počítať.
08:53
But you also learn other things.
198
518000
2000
Ale naučíte sa aj iné veci.
08:55
You learn bamboo building.
199
520000
2000
Naučíte sa stavať z bambusu.
08:57
You practice
200
522000
2000
Cvičíte sa
08:59
ancient Balinese arts.
201
524000
2000
v starovekých balijských umeniach.
09:01
This is called mud wrestling in the rice fields.
202
526000
3000
Toto sa nazýva zápas v blate na ryžových poliach.
09:04
The kids love it.
203
529000
2000
Deti to milujú.
09:06
The mothers aren't quite convinced.
204
531000
2000
Matky o tom nie sú príliš presvedčené.
09:08
(Laughter)
205
533000
2000
(smiech)
09:10
We've done a lot of outrageous things in our lives,
206
535000
2000
Urobili sme veľa poburujúcich vecí v našich životoch
09:12
and we said, okay, local, what does "local" mean?
207
537000
3000
a povedali sme, dobre, lokálne. Čo to ale znamená?
09:15
Local means
208
540000
2000
Lokálne znamená,
09:17
that 20 percent of the population of the school
209
542000
2000
že 20% populácie našej školy
09:19
has to be Balinese,
210
544000
2000
musí byť z Bali.
09:21
and this was a really big commitment.
211
546000
2000
Toto bol naozaj veľký záväzok.
09:23
And we were right.
212
548000
2000
A mali sme pravdu.
09:25
And people are coming forward
213
550000
2000
A ľudia ponúkajú pomoc
09:27
from all over the world
214
552000
3000
z celého sveta,
09:30
to support the Balinese Scholarship Fund,
215
555000
3000
aby podporili Balinejský fond pre štipendiá,
09:33
because these kids will be Bali's next green leaders.
216
558000
4000
lebo tieto deti sú budúci zelení lídri Bali.
09:37
The teachers are as diverse
217
562000
2000
Učitelia sú takisto rôzni
09:39
as the student body,
218
564000
2000
ako sú študenti.
09:41
and the amazing thing
219
566000
2000
A úžasná vec je,
09:43
is that volunteers are popping up.
220
568000
2000
že sa začínajú objavovať dobrovoľníci.
09:45
A man came from Java
221
570000
2000
Prišiel muž z Jávy
09:47
with a new kind of organic agriculture.
222
572000
2000
s novým druhom BIO poľnohospodárstva.
09:49
A woman came from Africa with music.
223
574000
3000
Prišla žena z Afriky s hudbou.
09:52
And together these volunteers and the teachers
224
577000
3000
Títo dobrovoľníci a učitelia sú
09:55
are deeply committed
225
580000
2000
spoločne hlboko angažovaní
09:57
to creating a new generation
226
582000
2000
pre vytvorenie novej generácie
09:59
of global, green leaders.
227
584000
3000
svetových, zelených lídrov.
10:03
The Green School effect --
228
588000
2000
Efekt Zelenej školy --
10:05
we don't know what it is.
229
590000
2000
nevieme, čo to je.
10:07
We need someone to come and study it.
230
592000
2000
Potrebujeme niekoho, aby prišiel a skúmal to.
10:09
But what's happening, our learning-different kids --
231
594000
3000
Ale čo sa deje, naše inak-učiace sa deti --
10:12
dyslexic --
232
597000
2000
dyslektici --
10:14
we've renamed them prolexic --
233
599000
3000
premenovali sme ich na prolektikov --
10:17
are doing well in these beautiful, beautiful classrooms.
234
602000
4000
darí sa im v tých nádherných, prenádherných triedach.
10:21
And all the kids are thriving.
235
606000
3000
A všetky deti prospievajú.
10:24
And how did we do all this?
236
609000
2000
Ale ako sme toto všetko spravili?
10:26
On giant grass.
237
611000
3000
Na gigantickej tráve.
10:29
It's bamboo.
238
614000
2000
Na bambuse.
10:31
It comes out of the ground like a train.
239
616000
3000
Vychádza zo zeme ako vlak.
10:34
It grows as high as a coconut tree in two months
240
619000
3000
Narastie do výšky kokosovníka do dvoch mesiacov.
10:38
and three years later it can be harvested
241
623000
2000
O tri roky neskôr sa môže žať, aby mohli
10:40
to build buildings like this.
242
625000
2000
byť postavené budovy ako je táto.
10:42
It's as strong and dense as teak
243
627000
4000
Je silný a hustý ako teak.
10:46
and it will hold up any roof.
244
631000
3000
Udrží akúkoľvek strechu.
10:50
When the architects came, they brought us these things,
245
635000
3000
Keď prišli architekti, priniesli nám tieto veci.
10:53
and you've probably seen things like this.
246
638000
2000
Pravdepodobne ste už také videli.
10:55
The yellow box was called the administration complex.
247
640000
3000
Žltá krabica bola nazvaná administračný komplex.
10:58
(Laughter)
248
643000
2000
(smiech)
11:00
We squashed it, we rethought it,
249
645000
3000
Pokrčili sme to a premysleli,
11:03
but mainly we renamed it
250
648000
3000
ale hlavne, sme to premenovali --
11:06
"the heart of school,"
251
651000
2000
srdce školy.
11:08
and that changed everything forever.
252
653000
2000
A to zmenilo navždy všetko.
11:10
It's a double helix.
253
655000
2000
Je to dvojitá špirála.
11:12
It has administrators in it
254
657000
2000
Sú v nej správcovia
11:14
and many, many other things.
255
659000
2000
a veľa, veľa iných vecí.
11:16
And the problem of building it --
256
661000
2000
A problém s budovaním --
11:18
when the Balinese workers
257
663000
2000
keď balijskí robotníci
11:20
saw long reams of plans,
258
665000
3000
videli veľké haldy plánov,
11:23
they looked at them and said, "What's this?"
259
668000
3000
pozreli sa na ne a povedali: "Toto je čo?"
11:26
So we built big models.
260
671000
2000
Tak sme postavili modely.
11:28
We had them engineered by the engineers.
261
673000
3000
Skonštruovali ich pre nás inžinieri.
11:31
And Balinese carpenters like this
262
676000
2000
A balijskí tesári ako tento
11:33
measured them with their bamboo rulers,
263
678000
3000
ich zmerali bambusovými pravítkami,
11:36
selected the bamboo and built the buildings
264
681000
3000
vybrali bambus a postavili budovy
11:39
using age-old techniques,
265
684000
3000
starou technikou
11:42
mostly by hand.
266
687000
3000
väčšinou ručne.
11:45
It was chaos.
267
690000
3000
Bol to chaos.
11:48
And the Balinese carpenters want to be as modern as we do,
268
693000
3000
Belijskí tesári chcú byť takisto moderní ako sme my,
11:51
so they use metal scaffolding
269
696000
3000
tak používajú kovové lešenie
11:54
to build the bamboo building
270
699000
3000
na postavenie bambusovej budovy.
11:57
and when the scaffolding came down,
271
702000
3000
Keď zložili lešenie,
12:02
we realized that we had a cathedral,
272
707000
3000
uvedomili sme si, že máme katedrálu.
12:05
a cathedral to green,
273
710000
2000
Katedrálu zeleného
12:07
and a cathedral to green education.
274
712000
3000
a katedrálu zeleného vzdelania.
12:10
The heart of school has seven kilometers
275
715000
2000
Srdce školy má v sebe sedem
12:12
of bamboo in it.
276
717000
2000
kilometrov bambusu.
12:14
From the time the foundations were finished,
277
719000
2000
Od postavenia základov trvalo
12:16
in three months it had roofs and floors.
278
721000
3000
tri mesiace, kým boli dokončené strechy a podlahy.
12:19
It may not be the biggest bamboo building in the world,
279
724000
3000
Možno to nie je najväčšia budova z bambusu na svete,
12:22
but many people believe
280
727000
2000
ale veľa ľudí verí,
12:24
that it's the most beautiful.
281
729000
3000
že je najkrajšia.
12:27
Is this doable in your community?
282
732000
3000
Je toto uskutočniteľné vo vašej komunite?
12:30
We believe it is.
283
735000
2000
My veríme, že je.
12:32
Green School is a model we built for the world.
284
737000
3000
Zelená škola je model, ktorý sme postavili pre svet.
12:35
It's a model we built for Bali.
285
740000
3000
Je to model, ktorý sme postavili pre Bali.
12:38
And you just have to follow these simple, simple rules:
286
743000
3000
Musíte len dodržiavať tieto jednoduché, základné pravdilá:
12:41
be local,
287
746000
2000
buďte miestny,
12:43
let the environment lead
288
748000
2000
dovolte životnému prostrediu viesť vás
12:45
and think about
289
750000
2000
a myslite na to,
12:47
how your grandchildren might build.
290
752000
4000
ako vaše vnúčatá možno budú budovať.
12:51
So, Mr. Gore, thank you.
291
756000
3000
Takže, pán Gore, ďakujem vám.
12:54
You ruined my life,
292
759000
2000
Zničili ste mi život,
12:56
but you gave me an incredible future.
293
761000
3000
ale dali ste mi neuveriteľnú budúcnosť.
12:59
And if you're interested in being involved
294
764000
2000
A ak máte záujem sa zapojiť,
13:01
in finishing Green School
295
766000
3000
dokončiť Zelenú školu
13:04
and building the next 50 around the world,
296
769000
2000
a postaviť 50 ďalších po celom svete,
13:06
please come and see us.
297
771000
2000
prosím, príďte sa na nás pozrieť.
13:08
Thank you.
298
773000
2000
Ďakujem.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
John Hardy - Designer, educatorJewelry designer John Hardy co-founded the extraordinary Green School in Bali, where kids get a holistic and green education.
Why you should listen
After selling his jewelry company in 2007, John Hardy and his wife, Cynthia, endowed a thrilling new project: the Green School in Bali. At the Green School, kids learn in open-air classrooms surrounded by acres of gardens that they tend; they learn to build with bamboo; and meanwhile they're being prepared for traditional British school exams. The school is international -- 20 percent of students are Bali locals, some on scholarship. The centerpiece of the campus is the spiraling Heart of School, which may be called Asia's largest bamboo building.
Hardy has long been an advocate of the use of bamboo as an alternative to timber for building and reforestation. When running his company, Hardy pioneered a program of sustainable advertising that offset the carbon emissions associated with the yearly corporate print advertising by planting bamboo on the island of Nusa Penida in a cooperative plantation.
